Reframing & Resolving Differences
About the Course
Conflict occurs when an individual or group feels that other individuals or groups have frustrated, or are about to frustrate, their plans, goals, beliefs, or activities. So, the conflict starts with an assumption that you or the other party made – an assumption that first needs to be reframed, then resolved.
Â
In this 90-minute workshop, you’ll:
Review your DiSC Conflict Profile in order to reframe a conflict you’ve had with someone, then
Practice an approach to open dialogue with the other party that will bring you to actionable agreement.
